Charles McClain v. State of Tennessee

Syllabus

The Petitioner, Charles McClain, appeals the Shelby County Criminal Court's denial of post-conviction relief from his convictions for first degree premeditated murder and especially aggravated kidnapping, for which he received concurrent sentences of life imprisonment and twenty-five years, respectively. On appeal, the Petitioner contends that he was denied effective assistance of counsel because trial counsel failed to object to the introduction of evidence that had been ruled inadmissible. We affirm the denial of post-conviction relief.

Judges: Judge Camille R. McMullen
